3. Re-hydrate the shitakes in warm water for 5 minutes or until they are tender.

4. Cut the baby onions in half and sear them on the side of the cut until lightly browned. Add a pinch of sugar, stir fry for a minute, and de-glace with the Chinese wine. Continue stir frying until tender and reserve.

5. In a pot, combine all the sauce ingredients and slowly reduce until syrup consistency. Chop the cashew nuts to a fine gravel size.

6. Using a wet skewer, push through the chicken and the veggies. On the grill, quickly warm up the skewers, take them out and brush them with the sauce, and cover them with the chopped cashews. Plate them and finish with some finely chopped spring onions (use the green part).
